Yuriev’s wife, Melissa Kho, captured her husband on video stripping down to his knickers and jumping into the frozen water.

“Just witnessed something amazing: My hubby (and pup) rescuing two dogs trapped in the ice,” she said on Facebook.

Video shows a near-naked Yuriev walking into the water, breaking ice as he moves closer to the first dog. His golden retriever decided to follow, and Yuriev and his dog reached the stranded animal, breaking the ice for the pooch to follow them back to shore.

Once the first dog was safely back on solid ground, the rescue-duo waded back into the ice water to reach the second dog that was stuck paddling in the water further out from shore. Again, Yuriev is seen swimming out while smashing through the ice to reach the dog.
